Three Corners of Deception

“Three Corners of Deception” is a story about how a college law professor and an attorney fell in love over a Las Vegas Memorial Day weekend. They got married shortly thereafter, then started a family only to realize he wasn’t the man he said he was and a complete manipulation of the relationship occurred. The marriage ended hastily after a year, only to be carried out in a court of law that brought even more deception than what was originally thought. Eventually the court would rule against the mother in all areas due to judicial deception with judges, lawyers, and lawmen involved. They were part of the “good ol’ boy network.

“I believes that everything is possible, and if you love what you do, you will be great at it”. From a fashion student to a fashion professor, to a fashion designer Aidan graduated from The University of Texas at Austin in 2019. He is an artist and fashion designer who is inspired by many things around him as he designs and creates his vision. He has been inspired by fabrics, colors and even stories to begin a new design and bring it to life. Color choice is very important to him during the creative process as it usually reflects the idea and story behind the design itself. Going from sketching to fitting, fashioning fabric and adjusting a final look with small touches that only a designer’s eyes can grace to notice. His interests outside of fashion design include traveling, art, painting, drawing and music. Fashion has allowed Aidan to build and expand on his design thinking to let him not only find solutions in fashion but anything related to design and aesthetic.

” It changed my life to better understand why people wear what they wear, and how it changes over time.”
